"[It's] something different from what's usually associated with Snoop Dogg," he added. "It's something upbeat that everyone in the house can enjoy.

"I'm on my old-school rap style there: we took sounds from the '80s like an 808 bass to give it that 'Planet Rock' and 'Going Back to Cali' feel. It was about paying homage, while at the same time taking the movie to the next level."

Snoop Dogg will voice snail Smoove Move in forthcoming film Turbo, which is in US cinemas from July 17 and the UK from October 18.
